note
sometimes may be the lecture shorter to
extend length of the seminar
homework information
the time you won't have seminar is to be
reserved for work on tasks you will be
assigned every two weeks
however, it does not necessarily mean
that one hour per week is enough for
the work to be accomplished
on the other hand, you won't be alone
to accomplish the task you will work in teams of three or four people
there won't be any semestral project to
be presented at the end of semester,
just seminar-to-seminar assignments
team forming
what kind of teams are told to be most efficient?
those which are internally heterogenous
in respect of personality types
the mental diversity in teams can result in great
outcomes, but also in conflicts and disaster
do you know what the personality type
is? if so, which type theories or
typologies do you know?
personality type
it is a psychological classification
emphasizing qualitative differences
between people like extraversion or introversion
there is a lot of type theories - typologies
common known typologies
Four Temperaments by Galen
Four Humours by Hippocrates
sanguine
choleric
melancholic
phlegmatic
more on next seminar
it will be useful when you know your own
type before the introduction
how we will use personality types?
you may learn something new about yourselves
I would like to use it as a key
for dividing you into teams why?
to gain an experience of cooperation on
something new with people
you ideally don't or barely know,
you did not choose for cooperation and
which are ideally different
this situation is typical in practice and
thus this is the part of the training
you may learn more about yourself
you may get know new people
